RE: file attachments

i have word and word works and office. as far as e-mail. i use msn. my
problem with my resume is posting it somewhere else other than in an e-mail.
i just made a discovery last night is though, i have an hp all in one and I
scanned my resume into my computr. now i looked and my resume is stored as a
jpeg. the new computers don't have floppy drives so i thought scanning it in
would be just as good. it is treated as a jpeg image. even as a jpeg i should
be able to move it from word. I need to be able to post it into an already
established window on emplyment sites. there is no e-mail just paste here and
submit,I can highlight it copy it but when i go to the window and hit
paste-nothing, just some teenie unreadable litle icon of some sort. i will
try to re-type the resume instead of scan,but a real pita,i have it on floppy
but no floppy drive. as far as e-mailgoes my address is msn.com,what would i
be outlook.com??(never used it before)
